In 2-dimensions, the answer is No. Unless the x-axis is counted as having an infinite number of intercepts with itself.

In more than 2-dimensions, the answer is Yes.

What is perpendiclar?

Two lines that intersect at a right angle are perpendicular.


Can parallel lines have the same intercept value?

Unless they are the exact same lines, no. Parallel lines do not touch. If two lines have the same intercept value, they share a point, and therefore touch.


Are two lines with the same y intercept are perpendicular?

Knowing that they have the same y-intercept, and knowing nothing else, the only thing you can say about the two lines is that they have the same y-intercept. That fact doesn't tell you anything else about them.


Is two distinct lines with same x intercept parallel?

No. In order to be parallel, two lines would have to have the same slope, and different intercepts.Why? Two lines with different slopes, but the same intercepts would result in two intersecting lines. Two lines with the same slope, and the same intercept would result in the same line. Two lines with the same slope, and different intercepts would be parallel.


Are two same lines parallel?

yes two lines that are the same line are parallel because they continue forever and do not intercept.


Can two non vertical parallel lines can have the same y-intercept?

No, they cannot - unless the two lines are effectively the same line.


Two lines that have different slopes but the same y-intercept?

no solution


Lines having the same slope and the same y-intercept?

In two dimensions, are the same line.


How wold you classify two linear equations have the same y-intercept and different slopes?

Two linear equations (or lines) with the same y-intercept and different slopes are intersecting lines. They intersect at the y-intercept. If the slopes are negative reciprocals (ex: one slope is 3 and one slope it -1/3) then they are perpendicular lines.


What is coincident line?

Coincident lines are essentially two linear functions whose graphs are the same; therefore, the two lines will have the same slope and the same y-intercept. When graphed, the lines will be one on top of the other.


Are two lines with the same slope and different y-intercept perpendiculars?

No because two lines with the same slope but with different y intercepts are parallel lines. Perpendicular lines meet each other at right angles.


How many solutions are there when two lines with the same slope and same y-intercept?

They are coinciding which means they have an infinite number of solutions.
